  • 5/5 Thorsten B. 10 months ago on Google • 12 reviews
    I'd rather be lost in the woods Than lost in the crowds. Rather wander where I belong Than wonder where I belong. I grew up next to the forest, still live near it, wouldn't want to miss it. And it is indeed a forest, not a park. An original forest, once probably part of the extensive northern forest, it's origins dating back thousands of years. Eventually gifted to the citizens of Hanover in 1371 by the dukes Wenceslaus and Albrecht of Saxony. Also referred to as the green lung of Hanover. Within, one does not need to wander far to go on a journey.

    A great spot for nature lovers. You can stroll or ride a bicycle through the forest trails. There is a park in the middle of the forest. Also there is a cafe. Toilet facility is also available.

    A huge area full of trees in the heart of the capital of Lower Saxony Germany. In fact a place where you can walk yourself or your dog. Playgrounds for the kids can be found as well as small cafés. Enjoy.

    (Translated by Google) Where is there a forest in the city? - HANOVER Here you can jog, ride a bike, skate, play, chill, walk ... pure relaxation! There are many small animals to watch that you would not expect to find in the city. Some corners are lively and others wonderfully quiet. (Original) Wo gibt es ein Wald in der Stadt? - HANNOVER Hier kann man joggen, Fahrradfahren, skaten, spielen, chillen, spazieren... Naherholung pur! Es gibt viele kleine Tiere zu beobachten, die man in der Stadt gar nicht vermutet. Manche Ecken sind belebt und andere wunderbar still.

    (Translated by Google) Always super nice to enjoy nature 🌿🍃 and the animals. And just a stone's throw from the city. Especially in summer with unbearable heat, the climate here is always super pleasant and therefore a place where it can be endured. (Original) Immer wieder super schön die Natur 🌿🍃 und die Tiere zu genießen. Und das nur einen Steinwurf von der Stadt entfernt. Gerade im Sommer bei unerträglicher Hitze ist das Klima hier immer super angenehm und deshalb ein Ort an dem es sich aushalten lässt.

    (Translated by Google) Nice city forest to go for a walk. For hiking only to a limited extent .... But very nice for children as there are some playgrounds on the side of the path where there is ice 👍 (Original) Schöner Stadtwald zum spazieren gehen. Zum Wandern nur bedingt.... Aber für Kinder sehr schön da einige Spielplätze am Wegrand auftauchen ,wo es auch Eis gibt 👍

    Amazing place to run, cycle and walk. You can even find secret places to dine. Treasure place in the middle of the city. I call it forest but locals call it a park 😜

  • 5/5 Wanderlust 1. 11 months ago on Google • 70 reviews
    Refreshing walking, jogging, biking forest in the middle of the city. Large patches of grass (dogs are forbidden in some) are great for picnics, Frisbee or just catching some vitamin D. A little cafe can be found in there as well. They were closed when we went, but it appears they have coffee and some food.

    (Translated by Google) For me, the Eilenriede is the best that Hanover has to offer. I am there with my dog ​​2-3 hours a day. The forest, like others, suffers from drought. The increase in blackberries is, I believe, also a burden. Dogs and their owners cannot harm this wonderful city forest, but I fear that more of these corona invasions, like those that have ruled for weeks, will affect him. (Original) Die Eilenriede ist für mich das Beste, was Hannover zu bieten hat. Ich bin mit meinem Hund täglich 2-3 Stunden dort. Der Wald leidet, wie andere auch, unter der Trockenheit. Die Vermehrung der Brombeeren sind, glaube ich, auch eine Belastung. Hunde und ihre Halter können diesem wunderbaren Stadtwald nichts anhaben, ich befürchte aber, noch mehrere dieser Corona Invasionen, wie sie wochenlang herrschte, wird ihm zusetzen.
